Pow! Wow! D.C. is a 10-day festival that brings a group of local and international artists to D.C. to brighten the city with art. This year's festival features 20 artists and eight sites. Kelly Towles, regional director for the festival, which runs from May 5 until May 14, says it is a celebration of art. "This is our goal for you guys to come out," Towles said. The festival includes a number of events, including several walking tours through the neighborhood where the murals are being created. Here's a peek at what the artists have created so far.
